• The top of the ring has the player’s number and a depiction of the east span of the Bay Bridge on a field of 74 diamonds (representing the 74 wins in the season and postseason), flanked by two trophies, for the back-to-back championships.

• The tricky part of the ring: The top can be removed and flipped over, displaying the same design but with 74 sapphires.

• Twisting off the top reveals the message “Strength in Numbers” inscribed on the base.

• The “player side” of the ring has the player’s last name, number and the “Just Us” motto. It has 58 stones, for the regular-season wins.

• The “team side” has the oak tree logo labeled “The Town”; 58-24, the regular-season record; and the phrases “World Champions” and “Back 2 Back.” It has 56 stones, for the number of years the team has been in the Bay Area.

• Both sides have a bristle texture, indicating the final series sweep.

The ring was created by the jeweler Jason of Beverly Hills; a video showing its features is posted at NBA.com.
